This book explores the relationships between artificial intelligence (AI) and education in China.It examines educational activity in the context of profound technological interventions, far-reaching national policy, and multifaceted cultural settings. By standing at the intersection of three foundational topics – AI and the recent proliferation of data-driven technologies; education, the most foundational of our social institutions in terms of actively shaping societies and individuals; and, finally, China, which is a frequent subject for dramatic media reports about both technology and education – this book offers an insightful view of the contexts that underpin the use of AI in education, and promotes a more in-depth understanding of China.Scholars of educational technology and digital education will find this book an indispensable guide to the ways new technologies are imagined to transform the future, while being firmly grounded in the past.

"Western commentators often talk about the rise of AI in Chinese education with a mixture of fascination and horror. Jeremy Knox moves beyond the usual techno-orientalist stereotypes, and offers a clear-eyed appraisal of what China can teach us about the fast-changing relationships between AI, education, society and culture."Neil Selwyn, Monash University, Australia“AI and Education in China: Imagining the Future, Excavating the Past succeeds in expertly guiding readers through the maze of AI-related policies/reforms/initiatives, geopolitical pressures, ideological constraints, spatial terrains, and philosophical currents that underlie the multiple, and at times adversarial, discourses, visions, and socio-technical imaginaries of AI for educational development in China.”Benjamin J. Green, Beijing Language and Culture University, Beijing, China. In Postdigital Science and Education (2024) 6:1355–1365.
